A new room is being created to house this unit adjacent to the hygienist's treatment room. The unit has it's own computer and screen to view the images as soon as they are taken and these images can be viewed on any of the practice's computer network.
For The "Health and Safety"-minded amongst you, the partition wall has been lead lined,in accordance with the regulations governing the use of this x-ray equipment.
As a rule, OPG images would be taken at 3-5 yearly intervals, if indicated.
